Pedestrian Warning System

Within this project a prototype of a pedestrian warning system should be developed. This prototype is composed of a EVK-3300 communication model (see above) from Kapsch, which acts as road side unit (RSU), and an arbitrary number of smartphones. On each of these smartphone an application is running in the background which transmits the current position to the RSU once it detects its signal (e.g. via WLAN). The RSU determines whether the received position is located within a danger zone (e.g. on the street) and sends a „pedestrian warning“ message to all vehicles in the immediate surrounding if necessary.
